Svetljo:

	Again I do not know that this fact is documented anywhere in the How-To. I will attempt to reimplement this version of LVM later using your suggestions. One respondent told me that I might be having trouble building a suitable init.gz as the lvmcreate_initrd script was revised in future versions?

	I am curious, does anyone plan to modify the documentation to effecuate adding the issues I have hit up in recent days?

thats right ,in case you don't use  ./configure --kernel-dir it will use
/usr/src/linux wich is a symbolik link to our kernel

 linux-2.4.8
it will name it lvm-1.0.1-rc2" here comes our kernel version".patch
it's the same as the one mentioned in the /usr/src/linux/Makefile in our
case /usr/src/linux-2.4.8/Makefile
so  it's lvm-1.0.1-rc2-linux-2.4.8-12mdk.patch
but you have first run ./configure in the previous dir, then chdir to
PATCHES ,and "make " should make the patch

>The documentation says to add a dash dash kernel-dir= or something or other after the "./configure" command, are you saying it is better to use "./configure" absent that appended statement?

no it doesn't metter, you can put it where ever you wont,
in case your /tmp is not cleaned @ every reboot no problems , but it's
probably a very good idea not to delete it
